Has Perry’s diminished image hurt Texas?

It is a shame we (Republicans) let the media set the stage for the selection of our candidate. It is a shame the media in Texas lashed out at our own. Then they wonder why he did not meet with the editorial boards of the newspapers around the state when he ran for governor. It is a no-win situation.

My father always taught me you can learn about a man by his actions and his track record. That is why Rick Perry has been a success and will continue to make Texas shine while most states are slumping and are trying to be more like us.

Instead of having a Christian, staunch conservative man of character as our nominee, we are allowing our media to bring in a candidate that is a moderate, great debater with little or no Christian values.

… Perry’s image a bust

Rick Perry’s performance as a presidential candidate does indeed reflect on all Texans. Some governors in the past have made buffoons of themselves and left the rest of the nation wondering what is wrong with the voters in the Lone Star State.

Thanks for having reporters brave enough to bring out the truth.
